Vincent Vermeij is also involved in the second scene. However, this time with a bad pass around ten meters in front of their own box. Fabian Reese drives the ball to the edge of the penalty area before deciding to shoot. His shot flies harmlessly towards Tim Schreiber, who grabs it safely. The winger could have crossed the ball and served Dawid Kownacki in a more central position.

Right from the start, Vincent Vermeij shows that he will not be withdrawing today. In a duel against Toni Leistner, the striker goes all in and hits the defender on the right foot.

Game start

After the 1-2 defeat at SC Paderborn two weeks ago, Thomas Stamm only changes in one position. In central defense, Thomas Keller replaces Friedrich Müller, who is currently sitting on the bench. Meanwhile, nothing has changed in the 4-2-3-1 system. There are also two changes in the defensive line at Hertha. While Niklas Kolbe is not in the squad today, Márton Dárdai will watch the start of the game from the bench. Both Toni Leistner and Deyovaisio Zeefuik will be in the starting line-up. Meanwhile, nothing has changed in the 4-2-3-1 formation compared to the 5-2 win at Fortuna Düsseldorf.
7:48 p.m
By the way, it is only the fifth meeting between Dynamo Dresden and Hertha BSC. The host has prevailed in each of the four duels so far. In the 2012/13 season, both games ended 1-0, while in the cup at the end of October 2019 a penalty shootout was needed to determine the winner. In the Olympic Stadium, Herthan held their nerve and won 5-4 after Marko Grujić converted the decisive penalty. They last faced each other at the beginning of November. There too, the promotion aspirant was ahead with a 2-0 win. However, the statistics today speak in favor of Dresden, who have home advantage.

The international break came at perhaps a bad time for both teams. Dynamo Dresden have only lost two of the last ten matches and have picked up 16 points in this period, which puts them level with today’s opponents. Hertha BSC, on the other hand, has recovered after the two defeats in mid-February and was able to take three three points from the last four games. Stefan Leitl’s men only dropped two points against VfL Bochum. Accordingly, the form before the forced break could definitely be described as good on both sides.
19:34
There were no games on Good Friday yesterday. As a result, both the top of the table and a large part of the bottom of the table have not yet intervened in the 28th matchday. As a result, Dynamo Dresden and Hertha BSC submit. While the home team is concerned about staying in the 2nd Bundesliga, the capital city club could at least stay within the orbit of the top of the table with another success. The Old Lady is currently seven points behind SV Elversberg and SC Paderborn, who are tied for second and third place with 51 points.
7:30 p.m
Hello and welcome to the Easter showdown of the 2nd Bundesliga! On Saturday evening, Dynamo Dresden welcomes Hertha BSC to the Rudolf Harbig Stadium. Sven Jablonski will whistle the game at 8:30 p.m.
